SHENANDOAH — Ever wonder what used to sit along Shenandoah’s First Street? Do you remember the row of businesses that sat across from the railroad tracks? Well take a walk down memory lane with Waymie Comer on Saturday, Sept. 21 during a Historic First Street Walking Tour.

Comer will lead guests along the First Street sidewalk for three blocks to tell stories of past businesses and events that occurred in Shenandoah’s “downtown.”

The Town of Shenandoah Museum and Welcome Center is hosting the event, among its series of cultural activities planned year-round. This is a FREE event.
